Who] Who but God? or, who besides him? Proverbs 30:4. hath measured &c.] Gods incomparable and infinite power and greatnesse; ready to be employed for the succour and safegard of his; opposed here to the poornesse, basenesse and impotencie of idols and images. the waters] The main Ocean. Genesis 1:9-10. in the hollow of his hand] Or, palm. or, fist. 1 Kings 20:10. Proverbs 30:4. meted out heaven with the span] A speech borrowed from builders or carpenters, that use to mete out their work, sometime by rule, and sometime by hand. Chap. 44. 13. and 46. 13. in a measure] Heb. a tierce; or, cup of three: a drinking, or quaffing cup, as appeareth, Psalms 80:5. So called, as may be conjectured, because it contained so much as might well make three ordinary draughts; or as much as three of those cups, that usually they drank off at one draught. Or, it may be, a cup with three eares, or three feet: a cup, it seemes, of the larger size.
